 Hey guys, welcome back to another week of What's for Dinner. My name is Andrea with Food and Mentory Adventures in Food. Our What's for Dinner videos come out every single Tuesday and we are kicking off another week of What's for Dinner with some large salads. So in my household it's me and my husband and our six month old baby. So I generally cook between five to six times per week and then we have leftovers the other days. But I recently went to Trader Joe's and bought a bunch of stuff and I'll make sure to link that haul in the iCards. But one of the things that I picked up was the Caesar salad kit. So I made the kit and then to it to make it more of a meal. I added on these chicken strips from all these and this was our first time having them and they're actually pretty good. We both tasted them. So I made four chicken strips in our air fryer and then I chopped it up as you can see right there. And then also to make it a little bit more hearty I just boiled a couple of boiled eggs and added them to the salad. And then on this side we're just having some garlic bread. I already threw away the box a long time ago but it is garlic bread from Tom Thumb and it is the store brand and it is their five cheese. And we really like that a lot. And I also cook the garlic bread in the air fryer as well. So this is what we are having for dinner tonight and we'll see you guys next time. Hey guys so for dinner tonight I am trying out a new recipe and I thought I'd bring you guys along. This is for skillet stroganoff. Now I do have another ground beef stroganoff recipe that I've made before that I've been making for years. And I'll try to remember to leave that in the iCards so you can check that out. But this is a new one. It's a one pot stroganoff recipe. So in my skillet I have browned one pound of ground beef in an onion. I seasoned it with garlic salt, garlic powder and onion powder and I've drained it already. Into that I am going to add a can of cream of mushroom soup. And by the way I have my skillet on a on medium heat. So cream of mushroom soup and a cup of sour cream. Here's my cup of sour cream. I'm gonna add that in. I'm gonna stir this up just a little bit. And I'm gonna add some water and I'll make sure to leave this recipe in the description box so you'll have the exact measurements and my beef broth and my egg noodles. So I'm going to let this come to a boil and once it's come to a boil I'm going to cover it and simmer it until the noodles are done. So I'll be back to show you the finished product. All right guys so here is the stroganoff. I ended up letting it cook for about 15 minutes. The noodles weren't quite done enough for me and I did also end up adding a little bit more seasoning to it but it's really good. So I need to finish making my sides and then I will plate everything up and show you what it looks like. All right guys so I have everything all plated up. So here is the stroganoff and it is really good. Howard and I tasted it and we both really like it a lot. And then I just stir fried some broccoli, fresh broccoli and fresh mushrooms that I picked up during my Trader Joe's haul. And then in my freezer outside of my garage I have this huge package of Sister Schubert's dinner yeast rolls and they've been out there for a while and I need to use them. So I'm going to work on using these this week and I cooked it in the air fryer. I don't remember if I've ever made it in the air fryer or made these in the air fryer before but I overcooked them and that white film you see on top is butter so when it came out of the air fryer I put a little bit of butter on there to try to give it some sheen and hopefully make it not so dry but it kind of doesn't look as appetizing now that the butter has dried up. But anyway this is what we are having for dinner tonight and we'll see you guys next time. Hey guys so for dinner tonight I made some lasagna. I have not made that in a long time so let me show you the ingredients that I used up from our pantry. So in our pantry I had this box of ready oven ready lasagna. I used half the box but I did cook these ahead of time. So I used half a box of this and then I used a jar of marinara. So I used some of this marinara sauce the other week when I made chicken parmesan. I used probably like I don't know a fourth of a or half a cup of this sauce and I stuck it in the refrigerator and I wanted to use it before it went bad. So I used that. I used ground beef from our freezer and then I like to have a chunky meat sauce and so I had this bruschetta in my pantry and I love bruschetta. I do not put it on bread. I always use it as a pasta sauce. I mean it's just tomatoes and olive oil and you know it has a really good flavor to it so that's a tip that I like to share. Use bruschetta as just a regular sauce. You don't have to have it on bread and then I'm serving it with green beans. So I'm using two cans of green beans from Aldi and of course I season them up and then the sister Schuberts rolls are back. We had these the other day and like I said I have a huge bag in my freezer from Sam's and I am determined to use up these rolls this month and so I made the rolls in the air fryer again. So this is what we are having for dinner tonight and we'll see you guys next time. Hey guys so for dinner tonight we are having taco salads. I have talked about these taco salad shells on several what's for dinner videos and I grew up eating these. My mom used to make these all the time and they are really hard to find now so whenever I find them I buy a whole bunch of them and put them in my freezer and so I haven't had these in several months because I ran out and then I went to a crowbar that I normally don't shop at and found them there so I was so excited so I stocked up on them again but they are by Azteca. You get four flower shells in the box with formers and those white things are the formers right there so you just place the tortillas on the little formers on a pan throw them in the oven for about 10 minutes and here are your taco shells they are light and crispy and I love them so this is Howard's and he has some leftover rice on the bottom and then he has refried beans he has the taco meat lettuce cheese salsa and sour cream he doesn't have any avocados I need to go to the store tomorrow and pick him up some but if he did he would definitely have them on there and here is mine I have everything on there except I do not have rice on there and I don't have sour cream on there but I have everything else and for the taco seasoning mix we are using this Trader Joe's taco seasoning mix I recently picked it up on a Trader Joe's haul and I talked about it we've had it before and I really like it a lot so one packet of taco seasoning is 79 cents and let me flip it over for you okay so the recipe is on the back so you use half a packet for a pound of ground beef and it's just my husband and I eating if there were more of us in the household I would use a whole packet for and use two pounds of ground beef but it's just us and so the directions are to use a 14 ounce can of tomato sauce or tomatoes and an onion normally when I use their taco seasoning I just add it to my ground beef and add a little bit of salsa and then I call it a day but I decided to try to do what they said on the packet this time so I didn't add an onion because I just didn't feel like chopping it up but I did use some tomato sauce but I didn't use a 14 ounce can I just used an 8 ounce can and that was plenty juicy enough for us trying to get a close-up of the meat so it's not really saucy and I don't really like a saucy taco meat and so this you know one ounce was I'm sorry one can eight ounces was perfect for us and so let me show you the difference between the Trader Joe's taco seasoning and just the regular Ortega taco seasoning so this is what I currently have in my pantry and this is what I normally use and I still have a whole another bottle to get through but I just wanted to show you the difference and also the Trader Joe's here are the ingredients sea salt cumin just regular everyday ingredients and I didn't realize it was made in South Africa which is pretty cool but on the old El Paso chili peppers the first ingredient malodextrin cornstarch silicone dioxide etc etc and as you can see it's more like a powder whereas you can see all the different types of seasoning in the Trader Joe's so Trader Joe's is definitely my favorite taco seasoning when I finally get through this I'm just going to go with Trader Joe's it has a really good flavor so anyway this is what we are having for dinner tonight and we'll see you guys next time hey guys so for dinner tonight we are having Korean style spicy barbecue chicken stir-fry kit I picked this up from all these and I love these kits I have shown them before on other what's for dinner videos but these are a seasonal item I thought they only came once a year to Aldi but apparently they come twice a year so I went to Aldi the other day and by the time this video comes out my Aldi video will be out and I found them there and I was so excited so I got Korean and I also got the teriyaki stir-fry kit too so it comes with this well in this box I should say and that's everything that came in the box the packages but it comes with the sauce it comes with chicken it comes with the noodles it comes with everything and all you do is throw it in the skillet stir-fry it and it's ready to go and let me show you on the back here are what's wrong with here are the instructions on the back right here and it says that you can add in your favorite vegetables which I did so I added in some broccoli and some cabbage which you can't see the cabbage in there but I added that in and on top there is a chicken and that chicken is really really good I am serving it with some spring rolls from the dollar tree and this is what they look like now I don't brag about a lot of food from the dollar tree but these spring rolls are really good and Howard and I did a review on these probably over a year ago we did a dollar tree frozen foods video about a year ago and then we did a 2020 version a few months ago so I'll make sure to link those videos in the description box that I made the spring rolls and the air fryer you get 10 in a 10 in a package and I made five for us so anyway this is what we are having for dinner tonight and we'll see you guys next time
